My choice
I really would like to have a minute repeater like the 5447 or the 3637 but, they were not within my budget. After a long deliberation, I settled on the HORA MUNDI. I like the clean lines and the world time complication. Then, I had to find a close match for my wife.

1775, LE of 225 pieces for the 225th Breguet birthday. Platinum case with enamel dial. I had one, and I regret it!...
That is rather nice!
Do you have a shot showing the case sides? And did you regret parting with it?
